Researchers from North Carolina State University have for the first time successfully coated polymer implants with a bioactive film. The discovery should improve the success rate of such implants – which are often used in spinal surgeries.
Researchers at the Universitat Jaume I de Castellón (Spain) are working on a new type of coating that provides higher protection against metal corrosion due to its improved adherence to the metal surface and its anti-corrosion properties. The novelty resides in the elements used in the treatment of the paints through three chemically different pathways and the synergistic effect they produce. When the components interact, adherence of the paint to the metal substrate increases and anticorrosive properties improve. This way, the new coatings offer, with a single layer, a protection as good as when a pre-treatment is used.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "2013 U.S. Paint & Coating Manufacturing Industry-Industry & Market Report" report to their offering.
BASF Canada’s Automotive Coatings business will sponsor the Classic Car Collection at this year’s Canadian International Autoshow, Feb. 15 to 24, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC). The collection will be on display on the 700 level of the MTCC.
Thermolon Ltd, the South Korean based developer of ceramic coatings, renowned for innovation, announces its all new "MARATHON" coatings. These are being launched on GreenPan non-stick cookware at the 2013 Frank...
BASF supplies coatings for the mobile crane manufacturer Terex Cranes at its plant in Zweibrücken. The use of Ultra High Solids Coatings, that is solventborne coatings with a higher solids content and low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, plays a central role.
Michelman will be featuring a variety of new and enhanced surface modifiers in booth #7-523 at the European Coatings Show 2013 being held in Nurnberg, Germany from March 19-21, 2013. One of the new products being introduced will be Michem® Wood Coating 75, a proprietary anionic formulation that provides excellent water resistance in topical wood coatings. The new low-VOC formulation prevents the swelling of wood in the presence of water, and produces outstanding water bead.
Tribology, the science and engineering of interacting surfaces in relative motion, is used to study the effects of different types of lubricants on friction and wear. A typical tribosystem includes a lubricant, opposing surfaces, different speeds and loads, and the application environment. Choosing a lubricant for effective performance begins with the specific lubrication or friction regime involved.
Emissions from coal power stations could be drastically reduced by a new, energy-efficient material that adsorbs large amounts of carbon dioxide, then releases it when exposed to sunlight.
Semblant is conducting two first-of-its-kind demos illustrating the protective power of its conformal coat process at San Diego's IPC APEX Expo Conference February 19-21, 2013. Semblant's conformal coat protects a printed circuit board from liquids, salts and other corrosive elements. Semblant will be showcasing how its coating surpasses traditional coatings against water, isopropyl alcohol (IPA), and salty liquids.
